Getting Ready For Next Season

[Semisane]

Just finished building my new two-man "High Chair" deer stand. Now all it needs is some camo netting hung around the shooting rail.

Geez....I assume it breaks down for transport or is it where it needs to be??

[Semisane]

Not a problem Doc.
It comes apart by removing a hand full of 1/4" galvanized bolts. It's laid down with the ladder side on the ground (a one man job). Remove the bolts and it breaks down into four modules - ladder (about 75 lbs.), rear support frame (about 45 lbs.), seat module (about 30 lbs.), and floor module (about 30 lbs.). One person can carry the lighter modules a few hundred yards with ease. The ladder unit would be tough for one guy to carry more than a short distance. But two can carry it with no problem.

It's a fifteen or twenty minute job to either assemble or disassemble it, and the four modules can be carried in a short bed pick-up.

That is a beauty.  We have seven high stands, but none as good as that.  If I were you, I'd look into retailing it.  It doesn't look like treated lumber in the picture, but that is what I would use.  It lasts a lot longer in the weather.

Treated lumber is used Pete. It lasts many years even unpainted, though I usually paint them after the lumber is well dried and has weathered a bit.
 
I do sell the build plans. See them here:  http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/hunting-gear/381573-two-man-high-chair-here.html
